When a stroke strikes, every minute counts. Singapore has made significant progress in stroke treatment, with mortality rates falling sharply since the 1990s. Yet a new regional report highlights a worrying gap: many people still fail to recognise the warning signs of a stroke. What are the early symptoms beyond FAST (Face, Arms, Speech, Time)? What should you do if someone suffers a stroke, and how can AI help doctors diagnose and treat patients faster? Lance Alexander speaks with A/Prof. Anil Gopinathan, Head of Neurointerventional Radiology, National University Hospital, Singapore & Ai Li Siow, Managing Director, Singapore and Malaysia, Siemens Healthineers about Singapore's stroke readiness, the challenges facing hospitals as the population ages, and what could make the difference between recovery and permanent disability.
